I went home last week, and when I was sitting cross-legged writing code on Saturday afternoon, I suddenly felt pain in my left ankle. I thought it was numbness, but I didn’t think it was. But later, I found that my feet hurt very much when I touched the ground, and I couldn’t walk normally.
I wondered, I didn’t have a sprain, why did I feel like a sprain. I thought it was the tension of the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia, and I found some sports rehabilitation videos to follow, but it didn’t relieve much. I want to rest for a couple of days to see if I’ll be fine. I searched the internet for the cause of the sudden pain and found that it might be gout and rheumatism, but the symptoms didn’t fit me very well. For example, gout is usually the pain in the toe joints first. Enduring the pain the next day, I took the subway back to Hangzhou and bought Yunnan Baiyao Spray at night.
When I woke up on Monday, I found that I couldn’t move and my feet hurt, so I decided to go to the hospital to have a look. After taking an X-ray, the doctor could see that the distal end of the fibula, that is, the left lateral malleolus, had small bone fragments (small bone density shadows), which seemed to be fractured. But it was not serious. The doctor asked me to buy a brace to fix it myself, and it was equipped with loxoprofen sodium plaster for pain relief, dragon’s blood for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and Jintiange for strengthening bones.
Then I started working remotely for four days and could feel a little better every day. Because my feet can touch the ground, I go out to take out the garbage by myself every day, and walk about 2,000 steps a day. Today, I have been resting for a week, and I am wearing An De Armor ankle brace and Anta Chuang 2.0 shoes when I go out for a walk, and the pain is basically gone when I walk slowly. I specifically mentioned Chuang 2.0 here, because this pair of shoes wraps the ankle better and can give a certain amount of support. I didn’t find this advantage before wearing it. After this injury, I can feel that wearing ankle support is indeed more comfortable than other shoes.
I think back to last Saturday, when I jumped up and touched the signboard of the store, the fracture may have been caused by one foot landing. In the future, when doing similar actions, you must pay attention to landing. The doctor recommended an MRI to see the damage to the ligaments. It’s almost better now, so I won’t do it anymore.
